Produktinformationen zu „Down Garrapata Road (ePub)“
Chatita never saw "anything wrong with living on a road named for a small bloodsucking arachnid," until her older brother explains that the road is "Garland Potter," not Tick Road, as the kids had been calling it. "Look, little sister, just keep saying Garrapata, and see how you'll be made fun of at school. The americanos will really laugh at you."In this tender debut novel, a medley of young voices bring to life a small Mexican-American community in South Texas during the 1940s and 1950s. In this untouched world, young men depart for World War II, whispers of El Chupasangre (the bloodsucker) crawl across the countryside, a brother sacrifices the little money he has for a pastel dress for his sister, and one young girl makes a painful mistake when she disobeys her parents for a tryst with her boyfriend. Each of their lives plays out in the shadows of the world outside their small community and reflects the awakening of a generation of young Mexican Americans raised with their lives bridging two cultures.Anne Estevis brings to life the voices of young people on the brink of change and conflict, and the coming of age of a traditional community in the modern world.
